Household Dynamic:
- These warm, intellectually curious first-time parents are seeking a dedicated, experienced, developmentally focused nanny to care for their baby! They value a nurturing, educational, and screen-free environment for their child. They would love to partner with a candidate who shares these values and can actively integrate them to create a loving, learning-oriented environment and foster their child’s early development. Another cherished member of the family is their friendly and energetic golden retriever. Someone who genuinely loves dogs is essential!
- This is a dual-career household where both parents work from home in separate offices and occasionally travel once or twice a month. This is a family-oriented household, and close relationships with extended family are a meaningful part of their daily life. Their extended family lives nearby and visits multiple times per week to spend quality time with them, often joining the baby for outdoor walks. The family values honoring their Jewish heritage and family tradition, as well as education, intellectual inquiry, light-hearted humor, and open-mindedness. They love reading, nerdy jokes, outdoor walks, and low-key family time. They also enjoy spending time together and traveling for a few weeks throughout the year, with parts of the summer often spent at their family beach house in Delaware, yearly visits to Orange County, CA, and NYC, as well as one international trip each year. The family is eager to work with an adaptable, travel-ready nanny who brings a calm, supportive presence and is excited to join them on some of these meaningful family adventures! A collaborative nanny who works well with others, including a housekeeper, a part-time house manager, and a chef, will be a wonderful addition.
Ideal Candidate:
- This position is ideal for a warm, engaged, and deeply attuned nanny who is eager to nurture the early growth and development of a curious, growing baby! Someone with a strong knowledge of infant development who is passionate about promoting a child’s social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth and milestones through hands-on, screen-free interaction will be a perfect fit! The family seeks someone who brings a calm, engaging energy to each day and is confident in creating an interactive environment for young children. Someone who is safety and health-conscious will be key for this family! Someone communicative who fosters clear, consistent communication with the family by providing daily updates on the baby’s activities, milestones, and any emerging needs or concerns will excel in this role. The family hopes to welcome a candidate who is excited about a long-term role and is eager to grow alongside them as they expand.
- Responsibilities include creating an environment for the child to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, organizing of children’s areas, occasional errands, maintaining a strict no-screen policy, focusing on hands-on engagement and enriching interactions, monitoring the baby’s health and wellbeing, providing feedback to parents and taking appropriate action if needed, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year.
